FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ALDILA'S NVTM
IRON SHAFT PROVEN TO BE A WINNER
Poway, CA, June 28,
2005 – Aldila, Inc. (NASDAQ:NMS:ALDA) the game’s leading
designer and manufacturer of high performance graphite
shafts launched the NVTM
Iron shafts on June 15th and eleven days later they were
used by the winner of the French Open at Paris National, a
European PGA Tour event.
“It’s an incredible start,” said Michael J. Rossi, Aldila’s
Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “All our research
indicated that the new NVTM
Iron shaft performed well but to achieve a Tour victory so
soon after the launch is testament to our belief that NVTM
Iron shafts perform at the highest level, meeting and even
exceeding the demands of the world’s best players. It’s a
great feeling to already have our first Tour win with the NVTM
Iron shaft,” said Mr. Rossi.
The NVTM Iron shaft is
available in two models, both featuring low torque,
progressive tip-flex, constant weight designs – the 105 gram
Pro Model and the 130 gram Tour Model, in both parallel and
taper tips.
